    I'll start the ball rolling with a small bet at the home of the bard. I well remember, as a handsome and virile young man, being talked into taking the starring role a Shakespearean play at the local School of Arts. Of course this all happened a life time ago, and my memories of the occasion are mostly lost on me. I do remember though, the rousing reception I got for my stellar performance that evening.

    If memory serves, I think the play was that masterpiece the bard wrote while out on the turps ..... Ballyvaughn. The race takes place at twenty five minutes past the sixteenth hour. You might be interested to know Ron, that if I'm not mistaken, Bally was Stevie Ray's little brother.

    50 ew please.
